At the time of this post, it's only 15 days until San Diego Comic Con. With time ticking down, you know that there'd be a ton of exclusive announcements and let me tell you, companies have definitely unleashed the floodgates....

While Kotobukiya's Bishoujo Raven and Lady Deadpool may have just been illustrations on cards, our intrepid reporter in Japan managed to capture some additional photos of the upcoming Bishoujos on display.
These photos includ...

You don't have to wait for Toy Fair to have all of your biggest Bishoujo questions answered. Kotobukiya has unveiled the full artworks for its Raven and Lady Deadpool at Winter WonFes (Mass Effect 3's Tali appeared as a silhouette). Also on display were painted prototypes for Wasp and the previously revealed She-Hulk.

The full artwork for Raven looks incredible. Almost too good to be true. As if the finished thing won't be anywhere near on par with the sketch. Although one can always hope, right?

For those wondering how Kotobukiya was going to manage a gratuitous ass-shot of a caped character, Raven's cape is clearly to the side so her full ass is exposed. Congratulations, Shunya, you truly do think of everything...

On the plus side, the completed Marvel Bishoujo Wasp still looks really good so I won't give up hope that Raven will translate well. While I look forward to seeing additional images, I'm going to say that Wasp may be among the nicest Bishoujos we've seen thus far. The full illustration that we saw last year neglected to display what the figure would be standing on and, to my surprise, it looks like the character is skipping on water. It's a very cool effect. Kudos, Kotobukiya.

The Lady Deadpool illustration shows that, alas, she will NOT be accompanied by Squirrelpool (although *maybe* they'll add into the base later?). I'm not overly impressed by this artwork, though.

Finally, the display included a no-photo fully painted prototype for the Street Fighter Bishoujo Sakura.

We here at Tomopop would like to take a moment to apologize for not covering the artwork teaser for Kotobukiya's DC Bishoujo Raven (of Teen Titans fame). We aren't sure how we collectively missed it and are deeply ashamed to have not given a shout-out to Raven sooner.

Raven will be the second Teen Titan to appear in Kotobukiya's Bishoujo line, following Starfire last year. Of course, this reveal is obviously going to be more awesome. Why? Because Raven. Hopefully Raven will appear in figure form in the near future.

But what's next, you ask? Will we someday see a Terra? Bumblebee? Wonder Girl? Pantha? Bombshell? Miss Martian? Zombie Terra? Only time will tell... although I'd probably write off that last one.

Kotobukiya continues trampling on the ashes of DC's old Ame-Comi line with more suitable (and realistic in comparison) representations of classic female characters. Previously teased in illustrated form, Zatanna arrives with ...

After reading all about Kotobukiya's future products in Tian's overview of their panel at this year's New York Comic-Con, I am sure you are chomping at the bit to feast your optical nerves on the company's booth from the...

Andres is on the ground at NYCC (having the time of his life, I'm sure) and was able to get a part of the sweet action at Kotobukiya's panel. Usually at US events, Kotobukiya's emphasis is more on properties that western coll...

You didn't think that I'd leave out the Bishoujos, did you? Of course not, what would a Kotobukiya booth tour be without the popular line of ladies interpreted by Shunya Yamashita? It wouldn't be complete, that's what. And let me tell you, Kotobukiya really outdid themselves this year at San Diego Comic Con.
Hit the jump to see the photos we got on the show floor as well as my impressions.

Kotobukiya is going to have quite the show for us at San Diego Comic Con. We've already seen the teasers for Street Fighter Bishoujo Sakura. Then there was one for Marvel Bishoujo Wasp. DC hasn't been forgotten as the la...

After seeing her make the rounds at recent toy festivals, the voluptuous DC Bishoujo Starfire is now open for pre-order. Leaning on a giant rock, Starfire measures close to nine inches tall. I find this figure very visually ...

This has to be one of the quickest figures I've seen from sketch to market. It's no secret that Starfire was pretty much the perfect choice for the DC Bishoujo line, but it looks like Shunya and the folks at Kotobukiya wanted...

Toy Fair has returned and there's plenty to be excited over. One of our favorite companies, Kotobukiya, is trying to get a bit more of a buzz with the release of their preview catalog. From Bishoujos to ARTFX, Kotobukiya has a bit of something for everyone.
